Loft Conversion Berkshire 

A loft conversion is a process of extending the roof and making changes to the ceiling to make it inhabitable. This converted loft can be used for anything, it can be made into an additional bedroom, a gaming area, an indoor study, etc.

Getting a loft conversion is the smartest decision because sometimes, constructing an additional story or a dedicated basement can be too expensive. There are a lot of factors that have to be considered before getting a loft conversion and most importantly they should support a loft conversion. If the ceiling and the walls are too weak, a loft conversion cannot be done. 

Why get a Loft conversion in your Berkshire Home?

Getting a loft conversion is advised because not only is it a cost-effective solution to add additional space but it is also an investment that will increase the value of the house by at least 20%. All the money invested in the loft conversion can be made back while selling the house and with the invested money there is also a 20% profit. Apart from increasing the value of the house, getting a loft conversion is suggested because other alternatives for increasing living space are complicated or too expensive.

The next best option to enjoy additional living space is to move out and look for a new house, this is a time-consuming process because there are a lot of things that have to be researched and looked into before moving into a new house. You might find the perfect house but there are always small things like improper ventilation, high maintenance costs, no parking space, etc that can be the reason for you to choose not to move to a new place.

Why is it important to get Planning Permissions for your Loft Conversion

When you are planning to get a loft conversion, you should be extremely careful while selecting the type and plans for your loft conversion. Not all houses can support a particular style of loft conversion and if the loft is constructed even if the house doesn't complement it, there is a risk for the ceiling to collapse.

These planning permissions can be obtained from the local planning authorities and they will check the strength of the structure and check if the house will complement loft conversion. We at loft conversion London will help you by providing only legitimate plans that will most likely be allowed by the regulatory authorities. Getting these plans examined by the regulatory authorities can take too much time but when you do business with us, our team of experts work to get the permissions as soon as possible.

Why choose Loft Conversion London?

When you hire ill-experienced contractors it often happens that clients are sown something else and once the loft conversion is done, it looks like something else.

Advantages of Hiring Loft Conversion London to carry out a Loft conversion?

  • Availability of Experts -

We at Loft Conversion London are completely professional when it comes to offering any kind of service and this perfection and high-quality service is made possible by our group of well-educated and experienced experts. We have experts in almost all cities and these experts have a good understanding of the architecture in that area and they work on developing plans that would amplify the looks of the house. Our experts make sure that the house doesn't look odd or doesn't stand out from all the other houses in a bad way once the loft conversion is done.

  • Interior and Exterior Planning  -

The interior of the house matters just as much as the exterior of the house. Not all contractors take the exterior of the house seriously and develop plans only while considering the client's demands for the interior. In the end, the client gets all that he wants from the interior but the house looks too off from the outside.

Our developers make sure that the exterior is just as perfect as the interior and they use modern styles and techniques to make sure that the loft conversion seems natural and looks like the crown on a queen's head.

  • All Supervision -

Most of our clients are busy and they don't take time out of their busy schedules just to come and look at the work that is happening. We have professional supervisors who take care of all kinds of activities and once you hire us, we take care of everything right from purchasing the raw materials, transportation of the materials, construction, painting and we even clean up everything once the loft conversion is done. During the process of loft conversion, if there are any damages to the structure or any resources, it is on us and we take care of those expenses as well.

  • Perfect Finishing  -

When it comes to offering loft conversion services, there is nobody better than us. This is because we don't rush through things just to complete the tasks, our staff and all the people involved in the conversion are experts at the job and they take their time and make sure that everything is perfect. Even though it takes a little more time and effort to achieve the perfect outcome, our experts never cut corners and finish their work hastily.

  • Convenient Services -

When you hire other contractors to work on the loft conversion, they might ask you to move to a different location while the work is happening. This is very common and most of the clients shift to a hotel or rent a different house till the loft conversion is finished.

We at loft conversion London offer extremely convenient services to our clients and give them absolutely no reason to move to a different place. There is absolutely no or the least possible noise and we work in the houses that our clients suggest. There is no work done at night and most of the daily targets are completed in the daytime.

Ideas for Loft Conversion -

  • Indoor Play Area -

Most of the living spaces are really compact and there is almost no safe play area for children. It is important for children to have their share of fun but sometimes they can hurt themselves in this process because there are sharp and harmful things lying around the house.

It would be a great idea to get a loft conversion and then childproof it so that kids can play with their toys and you don't have to think about them getting hurt.

  • Home Theatre -

Having a home theatre is the dream for many but attaching a projector, speakers, and arranging everything can be very difficult in a living room where there is a normal TV. Using the converted room a home theatre is a great option as you have enough space and you can even soundproof the room so that you can enjoy movies with the perfect sound system and that would even disturb your neighbors.

  • Home Office -

Work from home has become a common thing and most of the employees are preferring to work from their homes because it is convenient and also it helps to increase efficiency. You might have some disturbances or distractions around the house and to avoid these problems, it is suggested that you get a loft conversion and use the employee space by making it a home office.
